        "That guy who fought tonight" captured a US championship and an Olympic bronze medal in less than 25 amateur fights. What were Fury's Olympic results again?

          Amateur Career

          The very tall 6'7" Wilder who possesses a powerful right hand hails from Tuscaloosa, Alabama. He started boxing in October 2005 and seemingly came out of nowhere in 2007 (just 14 bouts going in) to upset the favorites and win both the National Golden Gloves and the US championships at 201 lbs(91Kg).

          At the Golden Gloves he defeated highly touted cadet world champion Isiah Thomas a southpaw of Detroit and David Thompson, of Brooklyn, N.Y in the finals. At the US championship he defeated Quantis Graves and won the final 31-15 over southpaw James Zimmerman of San Jose, Calif.

          At the Olympic Trials he beat Graves two more times and won the Olympic Trials with only 21 bouts. At the first round of the world championships 2007 he dropped a 20:23 decision to Poland's Krzysztof Zimnoch.

          Early in 2008 he scored a career best win by edging out World Silver medallist Rakhim Chakhiyev in Russia in a Duals.

          He qualified for the Olympics by beating Deivis Julio 6:5, Jorge Quinones from Ecuador on double countback, and Brazilian Rafael Lima 6:5 at the qualifier. In each bout he was trailing going into the final round.
          Olympic results

          2008 (as a heavyweight)

          * Defeated Abdelaziz Toulbini (Algeria) 10-4
          * Defeated Mohamed Arjaoui (Morocco) 10-10
          * Lost to Clemente Russo (Italy) 1-7

          World amateur championships results

          * Lost to Krzysztof Zimnoch (Poland) 20-23

          Professional Career

          * Deontay is managed by Shelly Finkel and Jay Deas. He is trained by former welterweight champion Mark Breland, 'who moved from Brooklyn, New York to Northport, Alabama to train Deontay. He is promoted by Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions.

              Dude, Deontay Wilder did some **** that's never been done before. To win two national titles, plus an Olympic medal with virtually no experience is absolutely incredible.

                All of them would be too much for him at this stage. Barrett comes to win and would really put up a good fight, which is something I can't say about Guinn, but right now Guinn would take him out too.

                      I think that's the cue for some people around here to say "just goes to show how bad the amateur heavyweight division is when someone with virtually no experience can win an Olympic medal."
